The ungodly secular-humanists/Marxists slow march through America’s institutions over the last 100 years or so will have reached a crescendo – fulfilling Mr. Obama’s fundamental transformation of control of the masses.
Envision with me what a Socialist Democratic Party, takeover, a bloodless coup, a regime change, would look like. This is one in a series of daily articles leading up to the 2020 General Election.
OUR prison system should be built around restitution, which may include work done to repay the victims of crimes. We should not coddle prisoners. Prison is meant to be punishment. Criminals give up their rights when they commit a crime.
Democrats View of Prison and Criminal Reform
Prison Reform
To deal with “over-incarceration” most Democrats prefer reducing the severity of sentencing and early for some crimes to reduce the number of prisoners. Because several states have legalized marijuana for both medicinal and recreational purposes, many Democrats favor doing so on a federal level removing the criminal aspect of using this gateway drug (see the Day 25 post), which may be cause even more severe crimes in the long-run.
Democratic Prosecutors Too Easy on Criminals
George Soros funded organization supporting more radical Democratic local prosecutors and state attorney generals have created an environment in which criminal rioters, arsonist, looters, vandals and physical assaulters have been let off for crimes committed. These just encourages more crimes
At the same time Democrat governors have allow prisoners out of prison early supposedly due to the Communist Chinese coronavirus. These persons may have ended up joining rioters as well.
Private Prisons
Democrats also do not like private prisons. According to a Politico.com article, the Obama “Justice Department sought to end the use of private prisons to house federal inmates, directing the Bureau of Prisons to wind down its use of the contracted for--profit facilities, a move then reversed by President Trump's first attorney general early in his administration. Private prisons can be a good alternative, just like charter and private schools can be good alternatives to public schools.
Republican View of Criminal Reform and Prisons
The Republican Party platform points out tow grave problems undermine the rule of law on the federal level: Over-criminalization and over-federalization. Over-criminalization leads to over-incarceration as identified also by the Democrats Over-federalization leads to excessive and stifling regulations.
Restorative Justice
The Republican platform also states, “Along with diversion of first-time, nonviolent offenders to community sentencing, accountability courts, drug courts, veterans treatment courts, and guidance by faith-based institutions with proven track records of rehabilitation, our platform emphasized restorative justice to make the victim whole and put the offender on the right path…
Mandatory Minimum Sentencing
“… Modifications to (mandatory minimum sentencing) should be targeted toward particular categories, especially nonviolent offenders and persons with drug, alcohol, or mental health issues, and should require disclosure by the courts of any judicial departure from the state’s sentencing requirements.
Death Penalty
The Republicans also want to see the death penalty used as a deterrent to criminal behavior. It’s constitutional, but the Democrats also they support the death penalty for innocent unborn human beings (abortion) they condemn the death penalty for convicted murderers, how is that justice?
Tomorrow we will another possible way to reform the prison system, with an
emphasis on restitution and decreasing recidivism.
